The unemployment rate is 3.3%, which is pretty low. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. The weather takes some getting used to.
Pros:
- Good job market
- Friendly people
- Nice parks and trails
- Good healthcare facilities
- Walkable downtown
Cons:
- Traffic can be terrible
- Hot summers
- High property taxes
- Few job opportunities in some fields
- Far from major airports
